Representation Summary:

If priority were given to building on these types of plots this I believe would result in smaller and more spread out developments. This would have a less significant overall impact on the community, infrastructure, and the environment than the larger scale developments proposed over large areas of open farmland.

If the council actively seek to identify this type of land and encourage building here it will save productive farm land that we may well need in the future, and also make use of land that would not be utilizable.

Comments: Re: Core Strategy Pre-Submission Consultation - Regulation 27 of the Town & Country Planning Regulations 2008.


I would like to take the opportunity to make a general comment on the current recommendations to build residential property on 'green belt' areas.

When it is decided that more land is needed for additional housing it seems sensible to give preference to sites in the 'green belt' that are not suitable or economically viable for agricultural or horticultural use. The current planning restrictions on use mean that little account is taken of the quality or suitability of the land. The result is that unsuitable land that can't be made viable generally is just left as scrub or wasteland.

Representation Summary:

With regards to the proposed sites West of Rayleigh and Hullbridge,(which are actually in Rawreth) the plan is unsound, unsustainable and contrary to Policy H1 and guidance under the East of England Plan in that these are almost entirely on greenbelt farmland when brownfield sites are available. Infrastructure is inadequate for current demand, particularly roads, transport and sewerage/run-off. This plan would virtually treble the population of Rawreth and increase dependence on private vehicles which would result in gridlock of London Road, Rawreth Lane and surrounding feeder roads.
